Does the epic have a gyroscope?

Just wondering and is there a way to test it?

Thanks
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 063_XOBX:
The epic and all galaxy s variants have a six axis gyroscope
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] budderocks:
In the market there is a free app called Z-Device Test, it tests many things on your phone including the accelerometers/gyroscopes
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s84471:
Just downloaded and ran that app, and it only seemed to see the accelerometer (no mention of a gyro in it).
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blankrubber:
Fyi, the Epic 4G has a six-axis sensor, which is really a 3-axis accelerometer (for up/down, left/right/ forward/backward) and a 3-axis gyroscope (for "twisting" the phone in each of the 3 planes).

Hi All,

I'm not sure if Im overlooking something here, but I'm trying to flash a rom to my G2 phone.

I rooted it and confirmed it and installed Rom manager. I backed up my system. I download the rom to my PC and transferred it to the root of the SD card. But I go looking for it, and its not there.

If I browse my files from the PC as USB storage, its not there though I could see Windows transferring a little over 300Mb. I tried renaming it, setting it up in a different folder, nothing. It wont show up on the SD card. Its an HTC sense .zip file rom.

I'm stumped. I was happy everything was going as it should, then boom, I cant find it on the SD card. I even tried a different SD card.

Any opinions?

Thanks,

Chip

I tried to read as many threads as possible and didn't find an answer so I am opening a new thread for help.

I have just bought a captivate from ebay and got it 2 days ago. It's still at 2.1 locked with at&t. I am a t-mobile prepaid phone user, so I unlocked the phone w/ the SGS unlock app by performing sim unlock.

So now, I am trying to use the Kies mini tool to update my phone, it says device is not supported for update, what does that mean? Was the t-mobile sim card that is causing my phone to not update? or the unlock itself? Is there other way where I can update to stock 2.2?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djr83:
Old question I know, but most answers only mention memory handling. When memory runs out, Android closes background apps automatically.

Fine, but what about all the CPU the app takes up while loaded in background?

I just made a little test with a few games (only apps I have that will actually use up all memory). Memory-wise it works fine, if I load to many the games in the background will get unloaded. But if I only load up Worms and press "home" to get it into the background, it will still be loaded and take ~30% CPU :eek:

If I use "back" most apps will really close, but some are really annoying to close this way since you have to go through all the pages you have viewed (like IMDb).

The browser will not even close this way so I might as well just press "home".

What's the solution? I dont want to find out the specific way to exit for every single app, I want a universal solution. And "home" doesnt seem to be that universal as I hoped.

Hi,

i'am searching for a guide how to manipulate correctly the framework-res.apk.

All ways i have tested fails.

I would modify some symbols in Notification bar (battery 1%) but all Time the my Phone run into bootloop or all Application Crashes after Startup.

I've tryed Apk Manager 4.9 / and Manualy with apktool.

Help plz .....
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] monx®:
what i did :

1-extract apk (i use 7zip/WinRAR)

2-edit/replace image file(s)

3-repack with zero compression level ('store' level)

4-sign the apk

5-replace file using apk or create flashable recovery zip.

regards.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] PapaDocta:
signing the framework-res.apk will not work.. will make the device go into bootloop

what you need is extract the framework-res.apk using apktool and edit the things you want and then compile it again using apktool .... now open the original framework-res.apk and replace the file resources.arsc with the edited compiled one..

this way you will retain the signature of the original framework-res.apk
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] kowalski99:
But when i add some new Files and Edit some XML the Sign will be Corrupted ?
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] PapaDocta:
no it won't...

You need to do two copies.. the original file and the moded one...

1. make a backup of the original file

2. extract the original file using apktool

3. edit and modify anything you like

4. compile the edited file

5. rename the compiled file to framework-res.zip and take the modified resources.arsc

6. using winrar or 7zip open (to view not extract) the backed up framework-res.apk

7. place the moded resources.arsc into the backed up framework-res.apk

by doing this you retain the original signature of the backed up file and not breaking it..
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] kowalski99:
Thx, will test it ;-)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] AndroHero:
Android system, signs system apk's on boot, you shouldnt sign them :)
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] monx®:
My signed apk just work well.

AFAIK, we only cant re-sign htc's apk.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] he_stheone64:
The right approach always depends, what you want to change. There is no need to decompile, if you only change a few standard png. If you change xml in values folder like color, styles or arrays, you can certainly not delete resources.arsc - resources have nothing to do with the signature anyway. So if you want to play safe, you should insert the original Meta-Inf (signature) and Android Manifest after compile. It is also recommended to zipalign the final apk in order to reduce RAM usage.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] PapaDocta:
thanks he_stheone64 for the clarification.. i reached that conclusion based on my own research on the net :) and yeah i used to change the XML files to add language support and that the only way that worked with me..
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] Slig06:
And be sure to have a working and up-to-date sdk before trying to use apktool...

First, using a old sdk release i got a partially working result (few graphics bugs and strange reboots), then with a badly updated sdk on top off the old i got apktool making many errors. Finally, re-installing the last sdk from start i got apktool and my resulting apk working correctly.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PerKiller:
I must admit, I am a complete noob when it comes both to linux, android and smartphones. I know a great deal about computers, but only recently bought the X10 mini pro, since it wasn't that expensive and I wanted a qwerty-keyboard.

Anyway, the reason I have decided to install a custom rom is mainly the fact that SE have confirmed that they will not give X10 mini/mini pro Froyo, so therefore I now understand I have to start using custom roms.

The current wishes I have for installing a custom 2.1 rom is the following:

-Apps2SD

-Multitouch

-Change themes

I have currently decided to go for the iridium rom. Is that a good decition? I've read lots about "JiT" but I don't exactly know what it is. For example, can I install JIT, then install a custom rom (such as iridium) and JIT will still be "installed" and working?

Many of the tutorials here are great, in the way that it makes noobs like me able to actually install custom roms, however, the tutorials are alot like:

STEP 1) Pick a ftl/i20x model and install with flash tool.

STEP 2) Use one of the following builds: 2.1.A.x353.3531.43 (I'm like... WTF IS FTL?! WHAT BUILD SHOULD I CHOOSE?? WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?!?!? :/) lol,

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PerKiller:
Trust me.. When I say I have tried for hours getting xrecovery to work, that includes rebooting 20-30 times, each time pressing the back-button from vibration and probably like 3 times per second, until phone is fully booted. No results. Is there no other way to check if xrecovery actually IS installed?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] HanMedSverd:
Ok, I've seen some problems with the placing of the three files...

Where have U placed dem?

You need to COPY them from sdcard til SYSTEM, Then MOVE to system/bin.

That step is very important to make it work.. if you've just copied them from sdcard til system/bin , that could be the problem.. ?

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PerKiller:
Thanks alot!

But now the strangest thing happened... after my phone crashed and I repaired it, I log into market with my google account, and all applications (such as "Root Explorer") that I've paid for in the past, won't get downloaded. It just starts download but nothing happens, download freezes at: "downloading".

Any ideas what's causing this?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] avlopp:
JiT is enabled as part of installing Iridium ROM.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PerKiller:
Alright, I did a factory reset to fix the problem. With market. Followed indtructions precisely, three times now...xrecovery never starts up.

Anything else I need to configure? I notice that when i reboot, go /system/bin the xrecovery.tar file is gone.

EDIT: No it is still there, with the same permissions.

It doesn't seem like anyone else have any issues running xrecovery, so I don't get it!!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PerKiller:
When I try to install xrecovery with the aapk-installer, the three icons just turn red. Judging from others who had this happen, it was due to an outdated busybox version.

Anyway, I ran Titanium Backup to update busybox, but that only got me 1.15. How can i get 1.18? It is not on the market
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] safrajs:
I dont think it is due to busy box version. i have busy box 1.15.3, and i have x recovery and custom rom CM 6.3.2.1 installed.

Are you moving the file and then copying them to them to the system folder? and is the root explorer in rw.

Thread which i followed: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=878426

peace.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PerKiller:
I move files to /system/. Change permittion. Copy to /system/bin/. Reboot. Hammer back button, nothing.

The unified xrecovery-apk installer gives a clue I think, cause the install fails. I just wantt to find out why. I am rooted. I do mount r/w..
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] bingobadgo:
You need to copy them THEN move them, from your post above you are moving them then copying. Its important to do it the right way round.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PerKiller:
Now I copied them to /system/. Change permittions. MOVE them to /system/bin/. Still no luck.

I am confused about all the talk about Busybox version, instructions about "DO NOT UPDATE BUSYBOX ONCE YOU'VE INSTALLED XRECOVERY!!" etc. but if I had done that wrong, xrecovery should just cause the phone to freeze at the SE-logo, right?

Atm, nothing at all happens at the SE-logo.

I think I'm going to use SEUS to wipe it all clean again, then just root it with superoneclick from PC, download Root Explorer, and try this again. My build atm is: 2.1.1.A.0.6 btw.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] PerKiller:
Thank you all so much for the help! I got it working now :) Had to go back to factory settings, then just root with superoneclick (NOT try to install xrecovery) then I installed xrecovery manually, after installing busybox through Titanium Backup.

Haha, now the only issue is that I can't find the flashtool from: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=825664 I made afew posts here and there asking if someone could re-upload or post a mirror two days ago, but no replies. Does anyone have the GUI-version of flashtool?

Flash newer radio.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P0MkA:
Could you tell me how to do it, pls? What is the last version of radio? How to check it?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Settings / About / Baseband

If the version is 4.06 / 5.08 / 5.12 (the version is in the middle of the long string there) - then there's some other problem in the system. If the version is 4.02 or 4.04 - then you need to go to Developers forum, open any Gingerbread ROM thread, and see the instructions for flashing Radio. Or look at my signature.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P0MkA:
The Baseband Version is 32.41.00.32U_5.08.00.04

What I'm thinking is could it be the problem because my Nexus had non original firmware before the GB update, and maybe I didnt make some important thing which blocking my camera now? Maybe I need to re-flash the radio with some original image? I'm totally NOOB in all these things... :confused:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
Your radio is 5.08 - which means it's updated and the problem is elsewhere.

If you didn't upgrade to Gingerbread from a clean FRG83G build, but from some other build - you'll need to reflash the ROM. You can do it if you have unlocked bootloader. Read Wiki, it has the guide for installing custom ROMs - execute it, and use Gingerbread stock build from one of the threads in Development forum.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P0MkA:
Thanks for your advices. Just upgraded the radio to 5.12 via fastboot. The camera still not work :( Will try to flash to original state...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P0MkA:
ok, i've tried to rollback to original FRG83, se-flashed boot, recovery, but no luck - camera didnt started. Hovewer, i tried the flashlight torch and it started to work (it didn't like a camera before), so I'm sure now the camera issue is the software now - not a hardware.

Does anybody have some advices?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_myk:
How did you flash frg83? via passimg or you flashed rooted rom from dev section? If you didn't use passimg method you should try wiping everything (cache, dalvik, factory reset) from the recovery.

BTW, if you have custom recovery you should be able to restore nandroid backup (which I assume you did;P ) and see if there is this problem too.

Cheers!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P0MkA:
i've flashed frg83 using fastboot. And updated to 2.3.3 via recovery (RA-passion-v2.2.1). And yes, I wiped everything using the recovery. Unfortunately, I do not know what is nandroid backup, so I didnt do it :(

Hope there is a way to get my camera back to work... Could you tell me what to do, step by step, to make my Nexus fully functional with the 2.3.3 firmware, please!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k_myk:
I'd love to, but unfortunately I don't know what causes this problem at the moment:( I think it wouldn't hurt to try loging what is going on when you open camera.apk. Try adb logcat from your pc or install "alogcat" from market, start camera app and paste here the log file.

Lesson for future always do nandroid backup:P You can do this from recovery, it will do phone's memory image:) Then you can always revert back to what you had before flashing new rom:)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P0MkA:
Yeah... backuping is a cool thing.... It is just my first experience with the Android phone... Maybe will find some kind of solution for this...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] P0MkA:
Well... Problem stays... However I've found few interesting things. As I've mentioned above, after the 2.3.3 update the camera and flashlight doesnt work enymore. But I've installed Z-DeviceTest and found that after the reboot this app (which provides the hardware test) sees the camera and flashlight! But, unfirtunately, doesnt able to test it. Moreover, if to start some torchlight widget directly after the reboot, the flashlight works!!! But it is not after the camera start... So, maybe someone will find this information useful.

I've heard Odin can be flaky and may take several attempts before it will work. I would keep trying. Also possibly change which USB port you are using on your computer and see if that helps. I was in this exact same scenario last week. I would turn on the phone and get the computer/phone/exclamation point of death screen. I couldn't get the phone to boot or into download mode without using a JIG. Finally on about the third try Odin worked for me. I started Odin as admin and almost as soon as I plugged in the phone to USB I hit flash and it worked. Best of luck...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loggik:
Odin is not flaky. It works if you follow instructions. It's the user's fault, not the software.

Anyway, this is probably the ten millionth time I've posted this in the last hour, but here's how to get into download mode if nothing else works. If this doesn't work, you hard bricked your phone and would need a JTAG flash.
